Classic Beef Stew using Laura’s Lean Beef (plus Giveaway)

Even though Spring is here and many people leave behind warm soups and stews, I do not. Most of the soups that I make are just for those cold winter months, but then there are others that my husband enjoys year round. Classic Beef Stew is one of them. When made correctly, using whole and heart healthy products, it can be a delicious and satisfying meal for any family dinner night.

I make mine using Laura’s Lean Beef — simply because Laura’s beef is determined to help us eat smarter — without all the extra and unhealthy ingredients that are in food these days.

About Laura’s Lean Beef:

Quality is at the heart of everything we do. In a world which has seen the emergence of highly processed foods, “factory farms” and junk food, we live and work guided by an alternate set of principles:

  • All natural – We believe that it is best to raise cattle in the way that nature intended.
  • No antibiotics – It’s not part of nature’s plan to use antibiotics to speed growth and counter overcrowded feedlot conditions.
  • No added growth hormones – We don’t believe in using hormones to speed the growth of our cattle. 
  • Leaner is healthier – We raise leaner breeds of cattle like Limousin and Charolais that produce beef naturally lower in fat.
  • Vegetarian fed – Cattle live in pastures and graze on natural grasses and grains. 
  • Sustainable agriculture  – We believe in the responsible stewardship of land and animals.
  • Humane treatment – All our farmers sign on to strict standards for the raising and treatment of cattle.

    This beef was awful. It has such a bad smell and a horrible taste. I checked into it and it’s factory farmed and given hormones and antibiotics by the farmers that actually raise the animals. When the animals are shipped to Laura’s processing facility they are not given drugs therefore Laura’s can claim they didn’t add hormones or antibiotics. But the cows are just as factory farmed as any. And the reason the meat tastes so bad is they use 3 steer types that were not bred for factory farming and don’t marble right under these conditions.
